Welcome to all of our Silverdale Elementary School families; those that are returning for another great year of learning adventures and to those new families that are joining us as newcomers, a special warm welcome to you. At Silverdale Elementary, we believe that ensuring opportunities for our children to maximize their intellectual, social, physical and emotional development is paramount and as such, this undertaking is best accomplished through our collective and individual shared responsibility.

As parents your role in overseeing, implementing and maintaining home routines is critical if our students are to develop and foster study habits that will advantage them now and later on while in high school and beyond. Of course your involvement in school with our PAC and via other avenues is not only welcomed, but is strongly encouraged. Silverdale's parents have a reputation for their ongoing involvement and it is through this involvement that all of our students benefit.

Our students have a reputation, while in school and while attending functions in the community, as being considerate, polite and responsible. These are just some examples of the character traits and values that are championed at Silverdale Elementary and over the course of the year, our students will have ample opportunities to learn about the importance of virtues as they strive to become socially responsible individuals and eventually contributing members of society.

At Silverdale Elementary, we work diligently with our students and with you, the parent, in order to provide the very best education for your child in a safe, caring and nurturing environment that promotes high expectations in all areas so that all students can achieve their personal best.
